While press and fanbase doubt the Brazilian National Team has what it takes, the players arrive to Teresópolis to prepare for the Copa America, but all is not well with their star striker Neymar Jr.

Without their talisman Neymar Jr, the team is booed after their unconvincing opening win against Bolivia before heading north to Brazil’s spiritual heartland Bahia for their next game against Venezuela.

A must-win final group game against Peru is followed by a nerve-wracking quarter-final against Paraguay where the star Gabriel Jesus takes the center stage.

Coach Tite’s team members are beginning to find their feet but now they must defeat their oldest rival and the greatest player on earth to reach the Copa America final.

Brazil is now ready for victory on the biggest stage of all, but the home fans remain skeptical as to whether this group of players has what it takes to go all the way at Maracanã stadium.
